da bus

we rode the bus to the farmer's market on thursday

it's amazing how a kid's little piece of heaven

can at the exact same time be a mom's nightmare.

it ended with me sweating from haulin' it to the bus stop

30 seconds before the bus was supposed to be there

because i forgot i had to ride the freaking bus

only to be yelled at first by the driver of the bus before

ours because i didn't wave him by when he pulled up

(isn't stopping at bus stops their job?)

and second by the driver of our bus

because I left my youngest birthday boy

in the stroller, apparently breaking

ALL new safety guidelines.

you'd think they'd have a clueless bus rider radar.
